I'm grateful our forefathers didn't share our society's entitlement attitude. If they had, our country would've waited tirelessly for someone else to build it.
Instead of venting, try inventing. Edison did. Zuckerberg
did.
They did while you're thinking about doing, or more to the
point: thinking that someone else should be doing it for you.
Harsh?
You bet.
Though far less so than the sting that complacency and bellyaching are going to cost you in the long run.
To be fair, the world is not always the rosy land of Utopia
we'd like it be. There's sickness, poverty, racism and stuff that should make
any decent persons stomach turn.
Amidst that bigger backdrop is government corruption,
irresponsible citizens and kids that smirk at the thought of harming an animal.
Innocent people die...
LIVE.
Take a walk, talk to God and leave someone better than you
found them, even if all you have for them is a smile. Resist the temptation to
wallow in pity. Start small. Take the time you normally spend complaining and
try...just try turning it into
something that's at least one iota better.
Our ancestors did. And that's why we celebrate engineering
feats like Hoover Dam, dreamers like Dr. King and Sally Ride and the
determination of a certain 1980 hockey team.
